[Q] help

Successfully rooted my phone yesterday, but was unable to flash Android 2.2. After fastboot checks pc36img it just goes back to fastboot screen. Was there a problem with unrevoked3 or clockworkmod?

If you are trying to flash a rom, you need to do that from recovery. What exactly have you done to your phone so far, which root method did you use?

I used the method for rooting Eco 4g with Android 2.2 I rooted the phone through to Android 2.1 then with unrevoked3 then copied clockworkmod files to the sdcard

But have u actually installed a recovery yet? You have to push a recovery through ADB or use a terminal emulator.

I thought clockworkmod was a recovery when I go into recovery it is a clockworkmod version

So you have root, you have your recovery, what is it you are trying to do now?

Yes but more so the update zip I think the recovery flashed correctly, the guide says to go to hboot and the phone checks for pc36img, but once it does instead of asking me if I want to apply update it just go back to fastboot

If you're already rooted why r u trying to flash a pc36 image?

Trying to flash 2.2 root I'm on Android 2.1 now

You don't need to flash PC136.img to get android 2.2. If you're fully rooted with recovery you can flash any ROM that uses Froyo and you'll have 2.2

You don't flash a rom with a pc36img. Download your 2.2 rooted rom and place it on the root directory of your SD card. Also,make sure you delete the pc36img on your card so your phone doesnt keep searching for it later. Turn the phone off. Boot into recovery by holding down volume and power at the same until until the white bootloader screen appears. Select recovery. Then select wipe/factory reset, then select wipe cache. Then select install zip from SD card. Scroll to your rom and select it, confirm yes when it asks, and wait for it to finish flashing. Once it's done it will say install complete. Then select reboot system now. Your done.

I'm starting to get confused here.....
1. Are you sure that you're rooted?
2. Are you sure you have successfully flashed a recovery?
3. Have you copied the .zip of the ROM you want to flash to the root of your SD card and booted in to recovery and tried to flash the .zip?

Sorry for the confusion, but I'm new to this, I'm positive I'm rooted and that I have clockworkmod recovery installed. I copied 2.2 root zip from my desktop to the root of my sdcard along with the pc36img and busybox. All three where part of the download link from the guide

Where is this guide at that you are following? If we can see where you are at, then maybe we can help get you back on track with what you are trying to do.

I assume you're at this part of part 2?
Step 3: After choosing NO to the reboot, you will see a menu again. Select Bootloader from the menu, then use the Volume Down button to hover over "Recovery" and press Power to click on it.
If your phone gets stuck at the White EVO 4G screen, pull your battery, and then power on while holding volume down again. It should boot to the bootloader again, where you can select recovery.
Once you are booted into this custom recovery, go to
It's supposed to go back to your menu (the white menu with the 3 green androids on skateboards) after scanning the PC36.img This is where you boot in to "recovery" Once in recovery, you can flash the 2.2.zip I have to say I've never used Clockwork so I'm not exactly sure if it's all the same menu. I've always used AmonRA

Not sure how i'm tucking it up, but the phone doesn't ask me if I want to reboot or if I want to apply the update what I do know is that if choose recovery and flash 2.2 it says install complete, but when I boot up i'm still in 2.1

Clockwork update 2.5.0.1 to 2.5.0.7

I am trying to update to the newest Clockwork.
When I apply the update.zip the newest Clockwork appears, but if I reboot the old version appears.

You need to use UnrEVOked to permanently flash a new recovery to your device.

Do I have to update unrevoked?
When i flashed the recovery image it was 2.5.0.1

Yes you do... this is what i did and i got the newest recovery

Hello Foxmeister,
can you please tell us how to install the latest Clockwork 2.5.0.7 on our desire.
Or we just must copy the recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.zip and rename it to update.zip?
Or me must flash the recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.zip via recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.1
from this site koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/
big thanks

As I said before, you use UnrEVOked.
Just flashing an update.zip of recovery will only launch the recovery one time - it won't actually flash it to your device.
As far as I'm aware, UnrEVOked is the only tool that will permanently flash a new recovery image to your device. It even allows you to choose a different recovery (e.g. AmonRa) if you wish.
Regards,
Dave

could you please upload unrevoked 3? The devs says it's down atm

Unrevocked v3.14
here u can download latest unrevocked version 3.14 containing latest clockworkmod.

A different question about 2.5.0.7 -
How do I know if "wipe Dalvik Cache" or "wipe battery stats" (in advanced menu) work? I run both when flashing new ROMs and unlike the other wipes, there is no message on the screen that confirm that it was done..
Is my recovery broken?
Thanks

A factory reset in recovery will wipe everything - cache, dalvik-cache and battery stats.

only unrevoked3 does it permanently...

Hi, it was a question how to update the Clockwork from 2.5.0.1 to 2.5.0.7. So, I will write my way of the update.
I just used the ROM Manager from Android Market. Today, when I started the ROM Manager I saw this item:
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7
Just after, I clicked on the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery I chose the HTC Desire and it started to download the new version and flashed it. It was done automatically.
After, I rebooted into the Recovery and I have a version 2.5.0.7. It wasn´t necessary to start any application from Windows or Linux...

Then congratulations. AT my Desire only unrevoked flashed a permanent recovery.
Please shutdown your phone and Start IT with Power +Vol down and look at the recovery Version. How did YouTube root your Desire before?

It is little bit bizarre.
I just did what you wrote. I switched off my Desire. Just after I used Power+Vol down and I entered into Recovery Menu where was a version 2.5.0.1.
So, no permanent flash.
Ok, I rebooted my Desire and I started the Rom Manager where I saw
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7
I clicked on the Reboot into Recovery in the Rom Manager and it started the Recovery version 2.5.0.7.
How is it possible ?

When you hold Power+Vol Down, you will enter the recovery permanently installed on your phone. When you go to recovery from Rom Manager, it loads up the recovery from sdcard, which Rom Manager installed.

there is'nt an update recovery image for 2.5.0.7 so cannot be a permanent flash yet.

CWM backup problem

My phone is
Unlocked
S-ON
rooted
I've flashed Alquez's Unofficial ClockworkMod and installed CWM. ROM Manager says Current Recovery ClockWorkMod 2.5.0.7
Latest Recovery ClockWorkMod 2.5.0.7
but when I try to backup current ROM, the phone reboots and I get a triangle with an ! in it and the phone freezes. CWM has root permissions.
Any clues please?

My opinion... dont use the Manger. So many people in the past show me that a App is only a App.
For example: Some users perform a backup with the manager but the sdcard was full...
The result: No Backup and a crying user.
If you perform the backup manually ... you see the sdcard is full.
Some job´s should be only done by a human
But regarding your problem: Can you boot into the recovery from the bootloader?

Yes, I can, and I can perform a backup from there, perhaps you're right I should avoid the app. Thanks

The triangle with a ! is the stock recovery. I think you need another key combination to progress into the stock recovery itself.
But the main point is, your flash of CWM recovery didn't work.

Interesting, It seems to be there as I can get to it from a cold start but not from within the app. Maybe I'll re-flash and see if that works. Thanks

using command prompt, I get the FAILED remote access:denied

Sounds like you probably aren't rooted but you also should try using unrevoked 3.22 rather than 3.32. Below is a section from a guide I posted for rooting your inc.(that is if you were unable to flash recovery.img) hope it helps

Step 2: Flash Clockwork Recovery to your phone
You now need to download a few more files and place them somewhere that will be easy to find.
Unrevoked 3.22 from Mediafire – NOTE: if this link ever becomes broken, you must use version 3.22, 3.32 will NOT work.
Clockwork 5.0.2.0 from PvilleComp.com – make sure you use clockwork 5.0.2.0 with md5: e8ac35ddc1c37000bb0852d1f380b5bb
Next, run unrevoked 3.22, as an administrator if you can. And click file>Custom Recovery… and select the .img file which is inside the Clockwork 5.0.2.0 .zip that you downloaded, you may need to extract the folder first.
Next you can plug in your phone and select charge only and then go to Settings>Applications>development> and enable debugging.
Unrevoked should now recognize your phone and bring up a warning dialogue. Click ok and Unrevoked will run and flash Clockwork 5.0.2.0 to your phone. Do not touch your phone until you see a terminal-like screen on your phone in all blue text on a black background.
you can navigate clockwork using the scroll button at the bottom of your droid incredible to navigate and center-click for “enter”.

I also had issues using unrevoked and had to do it manually... Good luck

Hi guys,
I'm really new to the HTC Incredible..coming from the Motorola Photon.....finally rooted, downgraded, and installed CWM, but I still get the black screen when selecting options, ie., advanced, backup and restore...tried using ROM Manager and was able to do a back up..I'm a little confused here. Which is the working version of CWM? Thanks so much in advance!

EDIT: Sorry failed to mention that I am on CWM version 5.0.2.0
Thanks again!

Double check that's your version of CWM, which should work. Your symptoms are standard for an older version of CWM on a SLCD screen. To be safe, go into ROM Manager, advanced options, and check erase recovery. Then reflash CWM 5.0.2.0.

Thanks for the suggestion..it didn't work. I flashed older CWMs and AmonRa but I still get the black screen with CWM logo. Thinking of:
- Fastboot erase recovery
- push recovery image
- then reflash CWM through ROM Manager?
Thoughts? Thanks again for the help!
K

Wait, black screen with CWM logo? That means you're in it, but pressed the power button at the main menu. Try pressing the power button once to get out of that when you see the logo.

Yeah..It seems like I can't select the options in the menu though I can toggle through. Its weird...even flashing the other cwm versions does the same thing.
SOLVED: Didn't realize you were supposed to use the trackpad to select..I kept pressing power...(that's how it is done on MoPho). Thanks for your help!

Hmmm... By selecting the options you wouldn't be pressing the power button, would you? Have you tried pressing the OJ to select instead?

Yeah that little trackpad was the way to select..I was pressing power...so used to that..LOL

[Q] Problem with CWM 5.0.2.0 stable installation.

Actually, I got no place to post my question. So, I thought of starting a new thread.
I have installed CyanogenMod 7 on my HTC buzz by downgrading its stock rom as it suffered a OTA update before. I guess you guys r well aware about the process.
During the downgrade, my phone got Revolutionary CWM 4.x.x.x by default. In fact, I have flashed CM7 using revolutionary.
Now, CM7 comes with ROM Manager built-in and I tried to install CWM 5.0.2.0 recovery right form the GUI. The update.zip was downloaded. I could update it manually form my recovery options.
But, it was not stable. Each time I boot into recovery, Revolutionary CWM shows up, instead of CWM 5.0.2.0. To use it again, I have update the package each and every time.
Is is quite normal? Or, I am missing something? Plz help with advice.:crying:

I did this via Rom manager. Not through Recovery.

Yes this is normal for ROM manager as using ROM manager is only giving you a temp recovery over your stock ( in your case revolutionary cwm ) to get the cwm 5.0.2.0 you want you need to get either a PC49IMG.zip version of the cwm and use the boot loader method, use ADB/Fast boot method or use the terminal emulator method.
Tutorials are all over the wildfire thread and so are the necessary files etc.

For permanent recovery, copy the recovery onto your pc.
Turn on the willy in hboot mode, goto fastboot connect usb
Type fastboot flash recovery name.zip
here name is the name of recovery zip AS IT IS.
